Feminist interpretation is first grounded in feminism as an intellectual and political movement.  Next, this introduction briefly recounts the origins of feminist readings of the Bible with attention to both early readings and the beginnings of feminist biblical scholarship in the academy.  Feminist biblical scholarship is not a single methodology, but rather an approach that can shape any reading method.  As a discipline, it began with literary-critical readings (especially of the Hebrew Bible) but soon also broached questions of women’s history (especially in the New Testament and Christian origins).  Since these first forays, feminist interpretation has influenced almost every type of biblical scholarship.  The third section of this essay, then, looks at gender archaeology, feminist poststructuralism and postcolonial readings, and newer approaches informed by gender and queer theory.  Finally, it ends by examining feminist readings of Eve.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eReading the Bible as a Feminist  Jennifer L.
